While the Sheriff and County Attorney search the Wright’s property for evidence, a neighbor woman and the Sheriff’s wife discover important clues in the kitchen that the Sheriff and County Attorney have disregarded as “trifles.” The women must decide whether to hide the evidence or reveal the truth about John Wright’s death.
